Rror in the Midnight Sun
This low-budget sci-fi is different, if nothing else. It starts off a meteor falling in Scandinavia. Then it switches to a "civilized" country where doctors smoke cigarettes on airplanes; a sure sign of consideration. We are introduced to two ugly scientists; one of which looks and acts like Borat, and the other looks and acts like Boris Bedinoff (Rocky and Bullwinkle). Finally, we introduced to the boring good-looking people who are destined to be the leads in the film. However, there was one bright spot, as one Scandinavian is dressed up as a Norte Dame cheerleader. Then we are hustled back to the boring, good-looking scientist who can't act and his medalsome (she is an Olympic Champion) new girlfriend. Then about fifteen minutes of the film is chewed up at a ski resort, while we suffer through the philandering scientist (he has a girlfriend back home). The assignment turns into a vacation at the ski lodge with a pretty skater; not quite a good sci-fi strategy. After the painful bonding of the young daters and even more painful nightclub song, we finally get to move the film forward.at the 26 minute mark; you can fast -forward to this 26 minute mark right from the first few minutes and not miss a thing. I Will not reveal the rest of the film, but it is much better than the first 26 minutes; except for the extremely annoying American Olympic skater. A spaceship carrying Bigfoot has arrived, and of course, the best thing to do is shoot first and ask questions later; for those of you not familiar with the Socratic method; that aint it. Too much skiing, and not enough plot development. Sweden needs to stick to Bergman. Not recommended.
